Howie,

I took over a KF4 kit last year and wanted to streamline the
rudder/elevator assembly, but the templates/parts were not in the kit. I
have since drawn a full set of rib templates using AutoCad, and am using
these to do the job. They are not 100% perfect, but with a very small
amount of effort, they do the job quite well. If you are interested, I
can email you a copy of the templates, either in dwg. , or .pdf format,
and you can print them out yourself.

The sheet size is A2, but I could rearrange them and spread them across
smaller pages, which you would need to gue together (some of the ribs are
quite long.

Let me know if you are interested.

Regards

Colin
I would appreciate it if you could send me a copy of your cad file as
well. I would like to build up the tail feathers of my KIV and add
bottom false ribs.

I can handle the A2 sheet size plots so there would be no need to
rearrange them.

Thank you very much.

Colin I would also like to get a copy of the files. You can send me dwg
file, but if you would include the PDF in case I cant open the Dwg. I am
working on a MII and would like to consider install the additional ribs
before covering.

Howie,
I have a classic IV and purchased the ribs for the vert & horizontal
stab. I have not installed them yet, so it wouldn't be much trouble to
trace out a copy of the ribs for you. There are also a few other parts that
you will need to make (fiberglass top cap for the vert stab and a convex and
concave part fot the vert stab also. I could e-mail you a couple of
pictures to show you what I mean and if your interested, I could snail mail
you the patterns for the ribs (made of 3mm ply). I've done this for a
couple of other people already. I haven't made a dime off of this, I just
like to help out if I can. Let me know if you're interested. Be patient if
it takes me a couple of days to get back with you. I have 5 foster kids
that consume most of my time (which is why the plane will probably never get
finished). Anyone out there interested in a Classic IV? I'm the 2nd owner.
It's on the landing gear, and a lot of the controls are already built. I
have a lot of extras also (even a Mosler VW converted engine. I would
really love to build the plane, but I have to put these kids first. Some of
them come with stories that would break your heart. Someday I WILL build a
plane, but this just doesn't seem to be the time. Anyone interested in the
tailfeather ribs can contact me and I'll make you up some templates.
Bill

Bill it is unfortunate that you cannot find the time to finish your plane.
Perhaps the kids are what it's really all about. I hope you are getting
rides in some plane at least. Where are you located?
